Great job, S! It bugs me as well that celebrations often revolve around alcohol. It's fine for some, I guess...those that can have a glass or two of wine or whatever and walk away from it. Personally, I wouldn't be done until the whole bottle was gone, and then I'd probably try to sneak some more! I am scared about my first sober holiday. Sometimes I think I should have put off my sobriety until after Christmas, but it's now or never for me. I can't wait to spend Christmas with my kids, celebrating with them and being cognisant of every look of joy when they receive their gifts. As for the holiday parties, I'll opt for ginger ale
